Melinda just wants a quiet life, with a stable job and some kids she can love. But a change in her circumstances finds her taking on a live-in nanny role in her thirties—not quite the life she had imagined for herself as a young woman. Still, it’s the perfect place to start again. Or so she thinks, at first. Her employer is a progressive stay-at-home dad who’s ready to return to the workforce, … workforce, and he’s younger and hotter than any dad she’s ever encountered in all her years in childcare. Thrown together in such close proximity, Melinda keeps her lustful thoughts to herself, and devotes herself to her job.
But life is complicated. Why is James’s wife never home? And then there’s Melinda’s past, which isn’t staying where she left it. Throw a toddler into the mix, and will anyone in the house get their HEA? And is it ever really possible to get a second chance and start again?
With a cute kid, two lovely souls, some steamy scenes and a HEA—you’ll love this hot short romance

James is a young married man with a beautiful little girl, Hayley. His wife is out seeking internet fame and James needs a bit of help. So he hires a nanny, expecting an 18 year old he gets a surprise…Melinda.
Melinda is an older woman and just incredible with Hayley but this nanny might be live-in but was hoping to keep her baggage out the house. Then it comes breaking a window.
What James does for the protection of Melinda is clear indication that he’s falling hard. He does what he should have done with his wife and the failing marriage before he acts on his feelings, so don’t worry about cheating.
It’s a quick but well paced story. You will cheer for Melinda, James and that charming little girl.
